Blood in stool
Dear sir,
I have been getting red or Martin colour blood drop in my stool. This has been happening for a long time now, I guess about 5 months but have never experienced any pain as such. Lot of times when I put pressure in order to pass the stool the blood comes, but nowadays even during normal passage of stool the blood is seen.
I feel indigestion as well and generally feel like going to bathroom about 3 times a day. When I go for the first time in the morning I rarely see blood, but when I go in the evening or night I see blood almost every time.
Request you to kindly suggest me what I should be doing and I hope it's not too serious.
Thank you

[ ] Hi if this bleed is not associated with pain than is generally due to piles and quantity of blood should be more. If this is associated with pain and quantity is less than this is due to fissure. At times there may be sigmoid colitis which leads to cramping lower abdominal pain and may cause passage of blood in stool. Other rare causes are presence oflpolyp growth Or a malignant growth. You should avoid constipation, as this is the cause for piles/ Fissure. it's better to get evaluated , a short scopy done to rule out the underline problem. Take salads in each diet. Take plenty of water. Get your self evaluated soon. feel free to ask any further quary.Take care.
